Aviva Sonenreich on Denver's Industrial Reset and Turning Social Media Into Deal Flow

Aviva Sonenreich is managing broker of The Warehouse Hotline, a third-generation, family-owned industrial brokerage that has served the Denver market since 1984. Host of the Commercial Real Estate Secrets podcast and one of the most recognized voices in CRE media, she has built an audience of more than one million followers by making industrial real estate something people want to understand.   In this GlobeSt Women of Influence podcast episode, Sonenreich sits down with host Jenn Quader of The Smart Agency for a candid read on the Denver industrial market, where vacancy has climbed to a two-decade high yet correctly priced deals are still getting done. She explains why 2026 is the market's "hangover" year after the cannabis, e-commerce, and pandemic-driven run-up; where East Coast capital is deploying; why industrial outdoor storage remains one of the hardest asset types to replace; and how leading with value on social media generates real inbound deal flow.   GlobeSt Women of Influence takes place July 13-14, 2026 in Denver, CO.   Get your ticket today: https://events.globest.com/womenofinfluence/register [https://events.globest.com/womenofinfluence/register]

MCB's Katherine Pinkard on Operations, Scale, and the Data Behind the Deal

In this GlobeSt Women of Influence podcast episode, Jenn Quader of The Smart Agency sits down with Katherine Pinkard, Senior Managing Director of Property Management at MCB Real Estate. A fourth-generation Maryland real estate leader, Katherine co-founded Pinkard Properties in 2012, grew it to roughly two million square feet of institutional-quality, high-touch management, and in 2025 negotiated its sale to MCB; then stepped in to lead property management across the firm's national portfolio of about $4 billion in assets and 22 million square feet across more than 35 states. This conversation goes where most discussions don't: the years after the deal closes, when underwriting meets reality and value is either protected or lost. Katherine shares how her team onboards new assets by listening before acting, drives NOI on both sides of the ledger, and treats every property manager as the CEO of their building. She also makes the case for AI and connected data as the next operational edge and offers candid advice for women in commercial real estate: be the visible example, advocate for own your seat at the table, and never underestimate the power of peer mentoring. Katherine speaks at the GlobeSt Women of Influence conference in Denver, July 13 and 14.
